A Leeds food wholesaler has been hit with an almost £10,000 fine after multiple breaches of food and hygiene regulations.
GSL Wholesalers LTD, located on Roundhay Road in Harehills, pled guilty to four individual offences at Huddersfield Magistrates court following an investigation by council officers. The investigation was launched after a visit to the premises by environmental health enforcement agents in August 2021.
Officers served the business with a Hygiene Improvement Notice after finding pests. The prosecution was triggered by a revisit to the premises in September 2021, which found GSL Wholesalers LTD had not made the required adjustments and were still committing several contraventions of food safety legislation.
